Created by keen homebrewer Gareth in 2023, Gruff Brewery is named after his baseball nickname and reflects long friendships and a strong sense of local community. The obvious addition of 'Billy Goat' to Gareth's nickname by his teammates provided the basis of the logo. Starting on a 65-litre plant, plans were quickly drawn up to acquire a 200-litre kit to increase production. Local pubs, clubs and beer festivals are supplied with an initial range of four core beers.
